1840-O $2 1/2 AU55 PCGS. Large Mintmark. A challenging early
O-mint issue both in terms of total numbers and from a condition
perspective. The original mintage of 33,580 pieces includes both
small and large mintmark varieties. This solid AU example combines
green-gold alloy with natural reddish patina. The strike is
expectantly deficient over the central devices and a few of the
obverse stars. Population: 8 in 55, 17 finer (12/08).(Registry
values: P2) (NGC ID# 25GD, PCGS# 7720)
